    From the moment of arrival until our departure the experience at Carpe Diem was superb. A level of service you will not find in many places. I.e. unusual requests were met with the service, a smile and beyond. We were with 2 adults and 2 teenagers and came in for cocktails, cocktails and snacks. The drinks were beautifully made and the snacks were delicious. A big thumbs up for service, quality and diversity as the crew had members from all over the world. It took 20 years for me to come back but hopefully the next visit will be quicker.

    I love ❤️ 😍 going to relax on the couch at this beautiful restaurant on the beach in Barcelona . The ambience, and the decorations are just absolutely fabulous. The service is excellent 👌. They even offer a shoulder neck massage if you like. For that, you can give a donation. The food is very delicious, and the menu is International 😋 I bring all my friends who come to Barcelona to my favorite restaurant Carpe Diem.

    We made a late reservation at 23h30. Ordered soup and salads and buddha bowl. And cocktails. It was all good. We stayed for the African christmas eve party by Soweto club.

    CDLC has been one of my favourite restaurants in BCN for years, and it never disappoints. The atmosphere is good, and the location is great. The music gives the perfect beach vibe, and combined with a fresh Sangria de Cava, I will rate it 10/10. Furthermore I would like to recommend the Ikibana sushi dish as it is probably one of the best sushi I have ever tried. I went here with my sister and we are definitely coming back next time we visit Barcelona.

    No words except... wow. Really amazing food (expensive) but worth it. We had the sushi, nasi goreng, steak, crab tempura, tuna tataki, and tuna salad. Cant really pick which one was better all was excellent. Very efficient service. (Good cocktails). In the end. Bill was like 60eur per person. But worth every penny. we would come again.

    Great atmosphere we had a late dinner at 11pm arrived 25 minutes late and they accommodated us we had a really nice table and the staff were friendly offered us a free glass of Prosecco as our table was not ready. The food was really good. Amazing music and a great party atmosphere. The restaurant turns into a club. We didn't stay for that part as it got very busy.

    Nice place, but when we arrived i think it was 4 or 5 waiters who would help us= confused! We had also booket a table for two, inside. But they used so long time to check this, that we just sat were they said. At least we got one nice waiter, and not 5….. They all were nice, but som did not understand English.

    My husband and I ate there for lunch and enjoyed the ambience . We booked for 13 people to celebrate our friend's 60th birthday. There was a slight mixup with the table but was immediately corrected. Our waiter Dominic was excellent, the support staff were okay but we had to ask for bread plates and for glasses/plates to be removed as the table got cluttered. Dominic and his assistant topped off our experience by moving our champagne toast to a VIP area. The DJ was amazing and we danced for an hour making the birthday girl very happy. I would give a 9.2 score overall.

    gorgeous inside however food reallt let this place down I would not be returning. The masala was bland and chicken was rubbery. Hummus was not nice. Spring rolls also not nice. Cocktails weee weak and watered down Staff where nice but women came over to my table three times while I was in the middle of eating to ask if me and my boyfriend wanted massages off them which was very weird and off putting

    Terribly slow service, lost my VIP reservation and did not recompénsate well. Was made to wait 15 minutes from arriving before sat, and then an hour and 15 minutes before receiving my meal. Do not recommend if you want your money to be valued.

    Great food, great service while you know those restaurants in front of the beach are usually pricy for a poor quality. So, a very positive surprise !

    The guy looking after us and the team were great. The prawn tempura was terrible. The satay and california roll were good. However, I am not sure about value for money-- if you need to be the beach, then great

    Hard to be impressed when you are from New York. Thank you for trying. We won’t be back. Hard workers considering it was Christmas. I liked the curry

    Amazing restaurant, very friendly and attentive staff, great ambiance inside and outside— great to enjoy the beach views on a warm day. Food slightly pricey but worth it for the quality. And massages at the end of the meal.. can’t get any better!

    Disappointing.. you can’t mix Asian Arabic and Indian food - something is definitely wrong with the concept I‘ve ordered a main dish with Tuna and received something like a *starter* for f* 30€! If you meant to serve it as a starter without side dishes, change it on the menu!!
